Bazzagt4 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Thought the Soop was handling a bit erratic then found this New Toyo's on order..........could have been another story though. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keancy Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 They look worse then mine did, lucky you to spot it before you had trouble. Interesting to see yours went on the inside just as mine had, they looked fine on the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazzagt4 Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hi Anja, Did you have problems with tracking??? My Soop has been lowered by previous owner and I have a feeling it was never set up properly. Am I looking at a complete alignment setup??

Am I looking at a complete alignment setup?? Regards I had mine lowered at the front when I got it but it hasn't been reset up properly yet all round. The rears were balanced when I had the new tyres but not set up, will have that done soon at my MOT and all. I never had tracking issues I could feel the Car always runs in a very nice straight line. Only thing I have noticed it that my ass end isn't so trigger happy now when it is wet. Before it slid out slightly when I went over manhole covers even when it was dry.

Homer Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Crikey, with wear like that the suspension must be WAY out! Even stock supra's suffer from uneven wear on the inners, but nothing like that. As mentioned, either the toe or the camber is a long way out. What size and offset wheels are those and what suspension is installed? Probably a good idea to get the wishbone bushes checked out too.

Tricky-Ricky Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hi Ricky, Is it easy to re align??? I have HKS hypermax D coilovers. Regards If its just toe, then is pretty easy to sort, if its camber as well then a Little more involved, how much is it lowered by? and do the hypermax have adjustable top mounts?

Sorry but I know nothing about this setup the topmounts are a purple colour with 3 allen key heads and a central nut, nothing looks adjustable. HKS Hiper D Coilovers, lowered around 30 mm front, 20mm rear. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy07 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Mine were heavy worn on the inside on the fronts when i changed them recently. But ive got standard suspension and the tracking was checked and was found to be fine. When then guy fitted the new tyres and balanced the wheels he put more weights on my alloys than i have ever seen on one wheel. The steering feels much better and precise but theyve only been on for about 150mls so i cant tell if its made a diffference to the tyres yet! Hopefully Edited July 1, 2008 by gordy07 dodgy spelling (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Complete realignment would cost about the price of your next two tyres mate. So it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
